Go Buckeyes!!!

It is Game day at the Richard's Again! Ohio State is in the National Championship for the second year in a row! Keith sported his Buckeye pride and despite their loss he was pleased with their season! Addison sported her buckeye pride all day until bath time and then it was just Brutus keeping her feet warm. We started solids a while ago and I have been making all her food and she has done so well she now tries to feed herself and take the spoon directly to her mouth. She is sitting up by herself and rolling over like crazy! We thought since it was a special day we would give her a cookie to see what she would do with it and wow did see go crazy!! She almost ate the whole thing.

Christmas Day at the Bray's

We flew to Tulsa and got there around Noon. It was so fun Addison did fantastic and seemed to love looking out the Window of the plane with Daddy. She loved meeting another Aunt and Uncle for the first time. She was so tired that during opening presents she pooped out! We took a family picture and for the first time real snow fell on her face!

Christmas Eve at the Mocniak's (Grandma and Grandpa's)

This being Addison's first Christmas we weren't sure what to do and since she is only 5 months old we decided the Santa thing could wait until next year so we spent Christmas Eve with Keith's Family and then flew to Tulsa Christmas Day to spend it with mine. Christmas Eve was full of lots of Gifts and as you can see Addison was not lacking in that department. She got more than we and she could ever imagine.

Mammy comes to visit

Keith had to travel to Seattle and tickets were cheap so my mom decided she would take some much needed time off work and come to Florida for the week to help out. The day before she was supposed to come the worst ice storm in Oklahoma's history hit Tulsa and most of the towns power was out including the airport. I was able to get her a flight out that day, the only problem was it was out of Arkansas. So my dad drove her to Arkansas and she got to Florida and out of the cold and powerless town. The good part was my dad was able to find a wal-mart that had flashlights and blankets and emergency supplies without the crowd and they hunkered down to stay warm.

The Stuffed Animals take over!

We took Addison down to her Grandparents to see their Christmas decorations and Grandma Jan had been wanting to place her in all their stuffed animals and take a picture....Well it turned into an invasion of the fluffy kind!

Addison meets Santa

We took Addison to the Mall at Millenia in Orlando to meet Santa. Before we got there we decided that we were only going to buy one picture just to prove she had met him. When we got there we waited about an hour and then it was her turn, I was so nervous because they wanted Santa to hold her,but of course she just took to him right away. She giggled and smiled and listened to Santa. We then went to checkout and pick our one picture but, they only showed us two pictures to choose from or we could buy the whole session on a disc for and additional $35. Of course she was perfect so we bought the whole disc. SUCKERS!!!! Who could blame us!

Addison's 1st Thanksgiving

Addison's first Thanksgiving was great. She sat up in the high chair like a big girl, went to town on the turkey leg and ate Sweet potatoes for the first time and loved them. Which is more than I can say for myself. And of course she was the center of attention!

Addison Sees the Specticle of Lights at Disney Hollywood Studios

We went to Disney the weekend before Thanksgiving to see the lights! Addison was intrigued. Grandpa Ken show her all the lights up close and Grandma Jan held her while it "snowed"!
